I am going to a high school graduation for my kids' babysitter. I do not know her parents at all. She is my kids' favorite babysitter and has babysat for us for the past two years. I want to put money in a card. How much is appropriate ---what's typical? I leave in two hours. Thanks!!!!

I would say $50 to $100, especially since you appreciated her as a babysitter, this will be a very nice gift for her and it will go to college etc. Have your child write a nice note also, and thank her and wish her all the best.

How much do you normally pay for her to babysit for an evening? I would think 50 would be about right.(but I am pretty generous.)

I think $25-$50 is a nice amount for a high school grad

3 times the average that you pay her for sitting.

25 dollars is about right for a high school grad not related to you.
